De Silva Swings Upwards

Level 11 : 800/1,600, 200 ante

Upeshka De Silva has had a swingy day so far. After tumbling down the leaderboard earlier on, De Silva won a big pot to get himself back up to the 200k mark.

It was De Silva's right-hand neighbor who was tangling with the American. On an {A-Clubs}{A-Hearts}{8-Hearts}{K-Clubs} board, De Silva was facing a 14,800 bet and made the call. The river was the {5-Hearts} and De Silva's opponent bet around 35,000, which received a relatively quick call.

De Silva's opponent couldn't muster up more than {Q-Diamonds}{J-Spades} and the American showed the winner with {K-Hearts}{J-Hearts}.
